Normal and high sperm countThe number of live sperm cells vary from man to man and from day to day. Still, it is good to be aware of what can cause both temporary and permanent reduced sperm quality. Find out the factors that can cause reduced sperm count here.

There is currently no general definition of what a high sperm quality entails, but WHO has a standard of what is normal sperm count:

– Semen volume: Min.1,5 ml
– Total number of sperm: 39 million
– Concentration of sperm: 15 million / ml
– Total motility: 40% (i.e., the number of live cells that moves forward)

Donor Semen
Donor semen is treated in a laboratory, where it is cleaned and frozen to -196 degrees Celsius. Only about 50% of the sperm cells survive the freezing process. As a consequence, we only accept donors with a higher than normal sperm count, with a post-thaw motile count of 20 million sperm per ml. Are you one of them.
